The boy never knew the joy of biking because he had an illness in the brain that often ____1____ balance trouble. When he got home, McLindon went online and found a three-wheel recumbent bike (卧式三轮车) with a seat belt, ____2____ for a child with a balance problem. Soon the boy was cycling around the street cheerfully with his friends, having fun and getting exercise. ____3____ there was more, as McLindon found great excitement from the father’s face. “To see Tony chatting with other kids happily,” McLindon said, “I never forget the smile on his face.” That smile ____4____ the McLindon Family Foundation (基金会). Supported by donations, the group works with hospitals to ____5____ children who can get help from this kind of bike. The bike may include a headrest, a shoulder harness, a seat belt and so on. The bike is ____6____—$3,000 to $4,000. For kids lucky enough to get one, it’s really a life ____7____. “We worked with a 14-year-old girl who has spina bifida (脊柱裂),” says McLindon. “She spent most days on the couch watching TV. ____8____ she got her bike, she was training for special-needs triathlons(三项全能).” In a magazine interview, she said, “I always knew there was a(n) ____9____ in me.” So far, the foundation has donated 450 bikes, and that’s ____10____ a start. “I do a lot of things. I run a lot of companies,” McLindon says. “But getting these kids their bikes is the most important thing that I do.” 1. A. produced B. caused C. achieved D. expressed 2. A. equal B. wise C. perfect D. necessary 3. A. But B. So C. Because D. While 4. A. set B. started C. built D. developed 5. A. cure B. interview C. find D. train 6.

A. still B. mostly C. mainly D. just 【答案】1. B 2. C 3. A 4. B 5. C 6. B 7. A 8. B 9. C 10. D 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述Andrew McLindon因朋友之子患病无法骑车，遂研发特殊自行车并创立基金会，帮助残疾儿童改变生活的感人故事。 【1题详解】 句意：这个男孩从未体验过骑自行车的乐趣，因为他患有脑部疾病，经常导致平衡问题。 根据“illness”与“balance trouble”的因果逻辑，可知疾病引起问题。“caused”意为“导致”，符合语境。 【2题详解】 句意：回到家后，McLindon上网找到了一辆配有安全带的卧式三轮车，非常适合有平衡问题的孩子。 根据后文孩子快乐骑车可知，这辆车完全符合需求。“perfect”意为“完美的”，契合度最高。 【3题详解】 句意：但事情还不止于此，因为McLindon从这位父亲的脸上看到了极大的兴奋。 前文讲孩子快乐，后文讲父亲兴奋及更深层意义，存在递进转折关系。But表示转折，引出更多内容。 【4题详解】 句意：那个笑容促成了McLindon家庭基金会的成立。 根据后文基金会成立并运作可知，笑容是契机。“started”意为“启动、开始”，符合创立初期的语境。 【5题详解】 句意：在捐款的支持下，该组织与医院合作寻找可以从这种自行车中获得帮助的儿童。 根据“works with hospitals”和受益对象可知，目的是找到需要帮助的孩子。“find”意为“找到”，符合逻辑。 【6题详解】 句意：这种自行车价格昂贵——3000到4000美元。 根据“$3000 to $4000”的具体价格可知，对于自行车而言价格很高。“expensive”意为“昂贵的”，符合语境。 【7题详解】 句意：对于有幸获得这个礼物的孩子来说，它真的可以改变他们的生活。 根据后文女孩从看电视到参加三项全能的变化可知，生活被改变了。“life changer”意为“改变生活的事物”，符合语境。 【8题详解】 句意：她得到自行车后，她就为特殊需求的三项全能训练。 根据时间顺序，先得到车，再进行训练。“After”意为“在……之后”，符合逻辑。 【9题详解】 句意：在接受杂志采访时，她说：“我一直都知道我身上有运动员的潜质。” 根据前文“training for special-needs triathlons”可知，她参与运动项目。“athlete”意为“运动员”，符合语境。 【10题详解】 句意：到目前为止，该基金会已经捐赠了450 辆自行车，而这仅仅是个开始。 根据后文“the most important thing”及持续做的态度可知，目前成果虽好但仍需努力。“just”意为“仅仅”，符合谦逊且继续前行的语境。 三、阅读理解(共15小题,每小题2分,满分30分) A The 2024 Nobel Prize in Physics surprisingly didn’t go to a typical physicist but instead to two pioneers in machine learning: John J. Hopfield and Geoffrey E. Hinton. What they did was to use principles from physics to make discoveries in machine learning, which pushed the development of AI. ▲ This is a perfect example of joining ideas from different subjects to achieve a breakthrough. In simple terms, cross-disciplinary learning is about not sticking to just one subject. It means being curious and open to ideas from different fields-whether it’s science, art, history or technology--and using that knowledge to improve our own understanding. Cross-disciplinary learning is nothing new. We have seen many examples over the centuries. Even the ancient Greeks practised it. They believed that music, maths and astronomy (天文学) were interconnected. This helped them make groundbreaking discoveries. Great minds like Leonardo da Vinci, Isaac Newton, and Zhang Heng gave us amazing and influential creations because they were inventors, scientists, mathematicians, engineers and more, all at the same time. These inventors used knowledge from many different fields. As they proved, great achievements often come from thinking beyond the boundaries of a single subject. This is why, nowadays, schools are pushing cross-disciplinary studies. They hope that by drawing from multiple areas, students can contribute to different fields and make a meaningful impact. Cross-disciplinary learning can help you gain new opinions, find creative solutions and most importantly, better prepare you to deal with the complex challenges of tomorrow. You never know where inspiration might come from. Sometimes the best ideas are found in the most unexpected places. So, go ahead, mix it up, learn from everything, and see how far it takes you! 11. Which sentence should go into “▲” in Paragraph 1? A. It’s cross-disciplinary learning at its best. B. This means AI is the new start of physics. C. The award brings attention to machine learning. D. Traditional physics involves no other subjects. 12. Why does the writer mention great minds in Paragraph 4? A. To show how clever they were. B. To tell how they made inventions. C. To explain why schools push cross-disciplinary learning. D. To introduce how cross-disciplinary learning developed. 13. What can we learn about cross-disciplinary learning from the passage? A. It was first created and practised by ancient Greeks. B. It helps find out where your inspiration comes from. C. It focuses only on the study of science and technology. D. It contributes to thinking beyond the boundaries of a subject. 14. Which of the following is cross-disciplinary learning? A. Chen Xi does physics homework in a geography class. B. Zhang Jia uses maths knowledge to solve a biology problem. C. Wang Yi learns how to make paper-cutting in an art class. D. Li Na likes to listen to music while doing a chemistry experiment. 【答案】11. A 12. C 13. D 14. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了跨学科学习的概念、历史案例与重要意义，通过诺贝尔奖的例子和达芬奇、牛顿等人物的事迹，说明了跨学科学习如何推动创新与突破，探讨了它对学生未来发展的价值。 【11题详解】 第一段提到两位机器学习先驱用物理学原理推动了AI发展，后文又指出这是“将不同学科的想法结合以实现突破”的例子，因此空格处应总结该事件的跨学科属性，对应选项A“It’s cross-disciplinary learning at its best.”。 【12题详解】 第四段提到达芬奇、牛顿、张衡等伟人的事迹，第五段随即说明 “正如他们所证明的，伟大的成就往往来自于超越单一学科的界限思考，这也是如今学校推动跨学科学习的原因”，因此作者提及这些伟人是为了解释学校推动跨学科学习的原因，对应选项C。 【13题详解】 文中第五段明确提到“great achievements often come from thinking beyond the boundaries of a single subject”，对应选项D：“It contributes to thinking beyond the boundaries of a subject.”。A选项错误，古希腊人实践过跨学科学习，但并非由他们首创；B选项错误，文中提到灵感来源无法预知，并非跨学科学习的作用；C选项错误，跨学科学习涵盖科学、艺术、历史等多个领域，并非只关注科技。 【14题详解】 跨学科学习的核心是将不同学科的知识结合使用。选项B“Zhang Jia uses maths knowledge to solve a biology problem”（用数学知识解决生物问题）体现了不同学科知识的融合，符合跨学科学习的定义；A、C、D选项均未体现跨学科知识的结合应用。 B For years, scientists have known how to measure (衡量) the intelligence of a person. Recently they began to do research into group intelligence. Early research shows that group intelligence is not the total of the intelligence of the persons in it. So what is the secret of a group’s success? Researchers at a research company and a university have both dealt with this question. They believe they finally have a handle on what makes some work teams successful. In the study of the company, researchers collected information and studied it to find patterns. Are members of effective groups friends outside of work? Do members with similar personalities work together best? They discussed many opinions, but found no patterns to support them. In fact, who was in the team did not make a difference. Instead, the difference between more effective teams and less effective teams was in the interaction (互动) among the members. The university group collected information by using digital badges (数字徽章) that people agreed to wear. They provided much information, including how long people spoke, where they were looking during communication, and their body language. Not only the research company but also the university group found that the key to an effective team was how members communicated with each other. Among the findings, the most important is that, in effective teams, members spoke for almost the same amount of time—not at every meeting or communication, but the whole course of a project. The second one was that members showed an understanding of how it might feel to walk in somebody else’s shoes. A high level of these two characteristics makes a member feel comfortable when he expresses his opinions and makes suggestions without fear of being doubted by other members. They believe that others will listen to them and value what they say. One might say that most of these findings are clear. However, understanding group intelligence can help people make the basic changes that are necessary to increase the chance of a group’s success. 15. The words “have a handle on” in Paragraph 2 probably mean “________”. A. have a clear understanding of B. do a lot of research on C. make a deep discussion about D. have a hard time finding out 16. How did the university group do their research? A. They collected information on how people behaved. B. They studied the findings of some earlier research. C. They asked people questions and explained the answers. D. They discussed their opinions and found common pattern. 17. What can we learn about the researchers’ findings? A. It’s important to divide time equally among group members at one meeting. B. It is necessary for group members to understand each other’s feelings. C. It is common for group members to be doubted in an effective group. D. Team members need to talk as little as possible in communication. 18. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. The Value of Team Members B. Secrets of Successful Teams C. The Competition between groups D. Different Kinds of Team Communication 【答案】15. A 16. A 17. B 18. B 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了两项关于团队智慧的研究，揭示了高效团队的核心秘诀不在于成员的个人特质，而在于成员间的互动方式，包括发言时长均衡与共情理解，并指出理解这些发现有助于提升团队成功率。 【15题详解】 根据第二段语境“Researchers…believe they finally have a handle on what makes some work teams successful”可知，研究人员经过研究，相信他们终于弄清楚了使团队成功的原因。“have a handle on”意为“掌握、理解”，与选项A“have a clear understanding of”意义相近。 【16题详解】 根据第二段“The university group collected information by using digital badges…including how long people spoke, where they were looking during communication, and their body language”可知，大学小组通过数字徽章收集了人们说话时长、视线方向及肢体语言等信息，即收集了人们行为的信息。 【17题详解】 根据第四段“The second one was that members showed an understanding of how it might feel to walk in somebody else’s shoes”可知，研究发现成员需要理解他人的感受（换位思考）。 【18题详解】 文章开篇提出“So what is the secret of a group’s success?”，随后通过两项研究揭示了高效团队的关键在于成员间的互动方式（如平等发言、同理心等）。选项B“Secrets of Successful Teams”最能概括文章主旨。 C If you are on a bus or train, you’ve probably noticed that most people spend the ride looking at their cell phones. No doubt, they think doing nothing but sit there would be boring, so they prefer distracting themselves. This squares (一致) with past research showing people will do almost anything to avoid boredom. But results from new research suggest we should rethink that choice. We are probably underestimating (低估) how enjoyable and interesting it is to do nothing but pay attention to wherever our thoughts take us. In a series of experiments, researchers brought Japanese university students into a lab and told them that they would soon go into a room without their belongings to wait and do nothing but sit for 20 minutes. While waiting, they could think about anything, but were not allowed to sleep, walk, or exercise; look at a smartphone; or check a watch. Before entering the room, they were asked to predict how much they’d enjoy waiting and thinking, how interesting or boring it would be, and how much it would engage them so that they would lose themselves in it and forget the time. Then, they went in the room to wait. Afterward, they reported how waiting actually felt--how engaging, pleasurable, interesting, or boring it was. In some variations of the experiment, they waited in a dark room without any stimulation (刺激). Either way, researchers found that the participants were not good at predicting how much they’d enjoy doing nothing but think. Even in a dark room with no stimulation, they ended up being more engaged and interested than they’d expected. “People don’t recognize the real value of waiting thinking,” says researcher Kou Murayama of the Motivation Science Lab at the University of Tubingen in Germany and coauthor of the study. “Once they engage in it, though, they appreciate it.” Spontaneous (自发的) thinking often involves mind-wandering, daydreaming, thinking about the future, or recollecting memories, all of which can have upsides. For example, daydreaming and mind-wandering have been found to improve our mood, creativity, goal-setting, and job performance. Though it’s hard to know if these results with students would apply to the rest of us, Murayama did at least compare German students to Japanese students and found both groups underestimated the pleasure of waiting to a similar degree. This suggests that it’s not necessarily a culturally-driven phenomenon (现象), though more research would need to be done to check that. Overall, says Murayama, the results suggest we rethink whipping out our cell phones every time we are waiting or bored. Instead, we might benefit from having a moment to think freely about whatever catches our fancy—and enjoy ourselves just as much. 19. What can we learn from the experiments mentioned in the passage? A. Participants could sleep when they stayed in the lab. B. Participants felt more interested than they had expected. C. Participants could enter the dark room with their watches. D. Participants predicted they would enjoy waiting and thinking. 20. The word “engage” in Paragraph 3 probably means “________”. A. upset B. surprise C. confuse D. attract 21. What does Paragraph 5 mainly tell us? A. More studies are needed to support the findings. B. Both Germans and Japanese undervalued the pleasure of waiting C. Underestimating the pleasure of waiting may not be related to culture. D. The study results with students would be able to apply to the rest of us. 22. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A. To present the results of new research. B. To introduce a culturally-driven phenomenon. C. To discuss the true meaning of waiting and thinking. D. To advise us to think freely when we have nothing to do. 【答案】19. B 20. D 21. C 22. D 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍一项新研究，指出人们低估了无事可做、自由思考的乐趣，并通过实验说明单纯思考有诸多益处，最后建议我们无聊时放下手机，自由思考。 【19题详解】 第三段指出“Even in a dark room with no stimulation, they ended up being more engaged and interested than they’d expected.”，参与者实际感受到的趣味超出预期。 【20题详解】 第三段指出“how much it would engage them so that they would lose themselves in it and forget the time”，后文“沉浸其中、忘记时间”说明engage指吸引、让人投入。 21题详解】 第五段对比德、日学生，二者都低估等待思考的乐趣，说明该现象不一定由文化导致，同时指出还需更多研究验证。A、B只是段落细节；D与原文“hard to know if these results with students would apply to the rest of us”相反；C为本段核心观点。 【22题详解】 文章先介绍研究，文末“Instead, we might benefit from having a moment to think freely about whatever catches our fancy—and enjoy ourselves just as much.”点明作者意图：建议人们无事可做时自由思考。A只是文章载体，并非写作目的；B、C偏离全文核心倡议。 D Pip meets a stranger My first name was Philip, but when I was a small child, I could only manage to say Pip. So Pip was what everybody called me. I lived in a small village in Essex with my sister, who was over twenty years older than me, and married to Joe Gargery, the village blacksmith (铁匠). My parents had died when I was a baby, so I could not remember them at all, but quite often I used to visit the churchyard, about a mile from the village, to look at their names on their gravestones (墓碑). My first memory is of sitting on a gravestone in that churchyard one cold, grey, December afternoon, looking out at the dark, flat, wild marshes divided by the black line of the River Thames, and listening to the rushing sound of the sea in the distance. “Don’t say a word!” cried a terrible voice, as a man jumped up from among the graves and caught hold of me. “If you shout, I’ll cut your throat (喉咙)!” He was a big man, dressed all in grey, with an iron chain (铁链) on his leg. His clothes were wet and torn. He looked tired, and hungry, and very fierce (凶狠的). I had never been so scared in my whole life. “Oh! Don’t cut my throat, sir!” I begged in fear. “My name’s Pip, sir. And I live in the village over there.” He picked me up and turned me upside down. Nothing fell out of my pocket except a piece of old bread. He ate it in two bites, like a dog, and put me back on the gravestone. “So where are your father and mother?” he asked. “There, sir,” I answered, pointing to their graves. “What!” he cried, and was about to run, when he saw where I was pointing. “Oh!” he said. “I see. They’re dead. Well, who do you live with, if I let you live, which I haven’t decided yet?” “With my sister, sir, wife of Joe Gargery, the Blacksmith.” “Blacksmith, you say?” And he looked down at his leg. Then he held me by both arms and stared (注视) fiercely down into my eyes. “Now look here. You bring me a file. You know what that is? And you bring me some food. If you don’t, or if you tell anyone about me, I’ll cut your heart out.” “I promise I’ll do it, sir,” I answered. I was badly scared and my whole body was shaking. “You see,” he continued, smiling unpleasantly,” I travel with a young man, a friend of mine, who roasts boys’ hearts and eats them. He’ll find you, wherever you are, and he’ll have your heart. So bring the file and the food to that wooden shelter over there, early tomorrow morning, if you want to keep your heart, that is. Remember, you promised!” I watched him turn and walk with difficulty across the marshes, the chain hanging clumsily around his leg. Then I ran home as fast as I could. — Taken from Great Expectations 23. What does the writer want to tell us in Paragraph 1? A. What Pip liked to do in the village at present. B. How Pip’s parents lost their lives many years ago. C. When Pip’s sister got married to the village blacksmith. D. Why the story happened in the churchyard near the village. 24. How might the man feel at first when Pip pointed to where his parents were? A. Excited. B. Afraid. C. Relaxed. D. Worried. 25. What would probably happen after Pip ran home? A. Pip would do as what the man told him to do. B. Pip would hide himself far away from the village. C. Pip would try his best to fight against the two men. D. Pip would tell everything about the man to his sister. 【答案】23. D 24. B 25. A 【解析】 【导语】本文节选自《远大前程》，讲述了小男孩Pip在教堂墓地遇到一名逃犯的惊险经历。文章通过Pip的视角展开，交代了故事发生的背景，并以紧张的对话推动情节发展。 【23题详解】 第一段交代了Pip的身世：父母早亡，住在姐姐家，经常去教堂墓地看父母的墓碑。这些信息说明了故事为什么发生在教堂墓地附近——因为Pip常去那里，才会遇到那个陌生人。 【24题详解】 第四段中，当Pip指向父母的墓碑时，那人先是大叫“What!”，接着“was about to run”（准备逃跑），说明他第一反应是害怕，以为Pip的父母还活着、会来抓他。等看清是墓碑后才松了口气说“Oh!”。 【25题详解】 最后一段，那人威胁Pip必须带锉刀和食物来，否则“I’ll cut your heart out”。Pip当时非常恐惧，且已经答应“I promise I’ll do it, sir”。结合Pip年幼胆小、已做出承诺的性格，他最可能照做。 四、信息还原(共5小题,每小题1分,满分5分) A new way to relax is becoming popular among young people. This means choosing to spend time in parks during their breaks. ____26____ . Why this way is widely accepted Humans have evolved (进化) in natural environments, ____27____. However, human senses are more used to the smell and visual (视觉的) information of plants and water. That is to say, humans have had a close relationship with nature since the day they were born What can be achieved from visiting parks ____28____. Researchers have found that spending 20 minutes in a city park helps to increase emotional health, even if a person is taking part in exercise alone. Some people say that returning to one’s home from the park is like returning from a long journey. ____29____. This feeling can be easily achieved when they have no free time to take a long trip. How the development of the “20-minute park effect” is In daily life, the human brain needs to deal with different kinds of situations and information. ____30____. At this time, one can slow down the pace, stop boring tasks, and be in a natural environment that well treats the heart. If so, not only can people come alive again, but also their spirits and minds can be refreshed. A. which is necessary for every person B. Exercise can improve people’s emotions C. This causes people to feel tired over time D. They discover the joy of life is not far from home E. This is the most suitable time to visit the park F. while our life is filled with cars and tall buildings G. This way of self-relaxation is known as the “20-minute park effect”. 【答案】26. G 27. F 28. B 29. D 30. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了一种在年轻人中流行的放松方式——“20分钟公园效应”，并从人类与自然的关系、逛公园的益处以及该效应发挥作用的原理三个方面进行了具体解释。 【26题详解】 根据前文“A new way to relax is becoming popular among young people. This means choosing to spend time in parks during their breaks.”介绍一种新的放松方式正在流行，即利用休息时间去公园，以及后文开始分小标题阐述这一现象的原因和益处，可知此处应对这种新方式进行命名或定义，使读者明确后文讨论的核心概念。G选项“This way of self-relaxation is known as the ‘20-minute park effect’.”承接前文描述的“去公园放松”这一方式，点出其正式名称，自然引出后文关于该效应的深入分析，符合语境。 【27题详解】 根据前文“A new way to relax is becoming popular among young people. This means choosing to spend time in parks during their breaks.”提出年轻人选择去公园放松这一现象，以及后文“Why this way is widely accepted”开始解释该现象流行的原因，可知此处需要一个承上启下的句子，既能承接前文“去公园”的选择，又能与下文所述“人类进化于自然环境”形成对照，凸显现代生活与自然的疏离。F选项“while our life is filled with cars and tall buildings”以对比的方式引出下文，点明正是由于现代生活中充斥着汽车和高楼，人们才愈发需要回归公园这样的自然环境，逻辑衔接更为紧密，符合语境。 【28题详解】 根据小标题“What can be achieved from visiting parks”提出逛公园能获得什么，以及后文“Researchers have found that spending 20 minutes in a city park helps to increase emotional health”介绍研究发现逛公园有助于提升情绪健康，可知此处应引出关于情绪改善的具体说法。B选项“Exercise can improve people’s emotions”中“improve people’s emotions”与后文“increase emotional health”在语义上紧密呼应，能够自然地引出后文的研究发现，符合语境。 【29题详解】 根据前文“Some people say that returning to one’s home from the park is like returning from a long journey.”描述从公园回家像长途旅行归来，以及后文“This feeling can be easily achieved when they have no free time to take a long trip.”说明没时间长途旅行时也能获得这种感觉，可知此处应解释这种“旅途归来感”所蕴含生活感悟。D选项“They discover the joy of life is not far from home”紧承前文“从公园回家像长途旅行”的比喻，点明人们由此发现生活中的快乐并不遥远，与后文“无需长途旅行即可获得”形成逻辑呼应，符合语境。 【30题详解】 根据前文“In daily life, the human brain needs to deal with different kinds of situations and information.”说明大脑日常需要处理各种情况和信息，以及后文“At this time, one can slow down the pace, stop boring tasks...”描述此时可以放慢节奏、暂停枯燥任务，可知此处应说明大脑持续处理信息所带来的负面结果。C选项“This causes people to feel tired over time”承接前文大脑持续处理信息，指出久而久之会让人感到疲惫，从而为后文提出的放松解决方案提供了原因，符合语境。 五、单词拼写(根据中文、音标及首字母提示写单词) 31. Officials said the number of death from Boeing 787-8 was still ________ (预料) to rise. 【答案】expected 【解析】 【详解】句意：官员表示，波音787-8事故死亡人数预计仍会上升。根据汉语提示可知，空格处需填写expect“预料”，为动词；be expected to...是固定短语，意为“被预料；被预计”；the number of death是“被预料”，所以用expect的过去分词形式expected，构成被动语态结构。故填expected。 32. The firemen worked hard to stop the fire ________ (扩散) to other buildings. 【答案】spreading 【解析】 【详解】句意：消防队员努力阻止火势蔓延到其他建筑物。spread“扩散”，是动词；stop sth/sb (from) doing sth“阻止某物/某人做某事”，是固定短语。故填spreading。 33.

The University of Chinese Academy of Sciences gave a new name to one of its schools. It is now ____49____ the School of Space Exploration (星际航行学院). So, do students there learn about stars and aliens? Not quite. Some students there learn how to make rocket engines and control space satellites (卫星) from the Earth. Others learn to make space robots. “Space robots are like the moon and Mars rovers,” said Shu Yiwei, a student from the school. “They often look simpler—unlike humanoid robots (人形机器人) or robot dogs on Earth.” Shu wants to make space robots that look different ____50____. In this way, they can explore further and ____51____ into space. Her dream is part of China’s big space dream. From exploring the moon to reaching Mars, from the Chang’e probes (探测器) to Tianwen missions (任务), China is going farther in space. How far will we go? Only by ____52____ can we find out the answer. China’s space programme develops fast. ____53____ hard work, Chinese scientists are making great progress step by step. 【答案】49. called 50. in the future 51. deeper 52. exploring 53. Through 【解析】 【导语】本文围绕中国航天展开，先介绍中科院大学星际航行学院的学习内容与学子的航天梦想，再讲述中国航天工程的发展历程，并赞扬了科研工作者付出努力、推动航天事业不断进步的现状。 【49题详解】 句意：如今它被命名为星际航行学院。 前文提到这所学院被授予新名字，主语it指代学院，是“被命名”的对象，存在被动关系；call的过去分词为called，固定搭配be called表示“被叫做……”，贴合更名的语境，所以填called。 【50题详解】 句意：舒希望在未来制造外形与众不同的太空机器人。前文介绍当下太空机器人的外形特点，本句讲述她对研发新型太空机器人的远期设想；in the future是固定短语，意 “在将来”，匹配对未来畅想的逻辑，所以填in the future。 【51题详解】 句意：这样它们就能探索得更远，向太空深处行进得更深。and连接并列结构，前面出现比较级further（更远地），因此空格也需使用比较级；deep作副词表示“深入地”，比较级形式为deeper，explore further and deeper表示“探索得更远、更深”，契合深空探测的文意，所以填deeper。 【52题详解】 句意：只有依靠不断探索，我们才能找到答案。介词by后接动作类词汇时，动词需变形为动名词；全文核心主题是太空探索，explore意为“探索”，动名词形式为exploring，by exploring表示 “通过探索这种方式”，对应文中中国持续开展各类航天探测任务的内容，所以填exploring。 【53题详解】 句意：凭借不懈的艰苦奋斗，中国科学家正一步步取得巨大成就。后文说明科学家一步步收获航天成果，艰苦奋斗是达成成果的途径，through hard work是固定搭配，含义为“凭借不懈努力”，符合语境。介词through可引出方式、手段，单词位于句首首字母大写，所以填Through。 七、短文填空(共10小题,每小题1分,满分10分) Now more and more people would like to visit Tibet. When visiting a Tibetan family, it’s important to follow local manners to show ____54____ (polite).

They don’t have enough learning resources, especially for English. I believe English is not just a language- it also gives people the chance to see the world differently. So I started thinking about what I could do for these children. Then, I came up with an idea: to make special English learning material! More than 10 classmates joined me, and we started a club called “Out of Mountains” Our English materials have three parts: listening, reading and writing. We decided to publish them every month and send them to children by email. We also built a website so children could get information more easily. Each of us worked on one part, such as writing content, designing the layout, making illustrations and developing the website. To make the learning process more fun, we chose interesting topics for kids, like holidays. The hardest part was finding the children. I contacted schools in Liangshan, Sichuan. I also reached out to children through some WeChat official accounts. I felt nervous talking to them and was afraid of being turned down, but I did my best to share our ideas. In the end, we got the readers we had hoped for. Every time a parent emailed us saying “my child really liked the story”, it gave us the strength to keep going. I hope our small acts can help give these kids a better future. 64. Why did “I” make the special English learning materials for children in mountain areas? ________________________________________________ 65. How can children get the materials? ________________________________________________ 66. What do you think of “me”? And why? ________________________________________________ 【答案】64. Because the children in mountain areas lack enough English learning resources, and the writer wants to help them and bring them a better future. 65. They can receive the materials by email or get them from the website. 66. I think the writer is kind, warm-hearted and creative. He/She cares about kids in poor mountain areas, comes up with useful ideas to help others and keeps working hard to stick to the good deed. 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了作者发现山区孩子缺乏英语学习资源后，组建俱乐部制作并发送英语学习材料的经历及感悟。 【64题详解】 第一段直接提到山区孩子“They don’t have enough learning resources, especially for English.”，作者也因此想为他们做些什么；第五段结尾作者说“I hope our small acts can help give these kids a better future.”。因此答案是对这两处原文信息的整合。 【65题详解】 第三段明确提到“We decided to publish them every month and send them to children by email. We also built a website so children could get information more easily.”，直接给出了材料的两种获取方式，因此答案是原文直接信息的整合。 【66题详解】 开放性试题。结合全文作者主动帮助山区孩子的行为，可评价其品质。答案不唯一。 九、书面表达(共25分) 67. 为号召全体学生讲究文明礼仪、主动帮助他人，共同营造文明、和谐的校园氛围,学校将开展评选校园文明之星 (School Civilized Star) 活动。请你根据要求写一篇英文竞选演讲稿，参与此评选。 写作要点： 1. your good manners in daily school life (at least two points) 2. one of your experiences of behaving politely and helping others (who you helped; what you did, . . . ) 3. your feelings about helping others 注意: 1. 内容涵盖所有要点，可适当发挥； 2. 词数不少于90，开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 Dear teachers and schoolmates, I’m very glad to run for the “School Civilized Star”. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I hope I can get your support and be a role model for everyone.

Hopfield and Geoffrey E. Hinton. What they did was to use principles from physics to make discoveries in machine learning, which pushed the development of AI. ▲ This is a perfect example of joining ideas from different subjects to achieve a breakthrough. In simple terms, cross-disciplinary learning is about not sticking to just one subject. It means being curious and open to ideas from different fields-whether it’s science, art, history or technology--and using that knowledge to improve our own understanding. Cross-disciplinary learning is nothing new. We have seen many examples over the centuries. Even the ancient Greeks practised it. They believed that music, maths and astronomy (天文学) were interconnected. This helped them make groundbreaking discoveries. Great minds like Leonardo da Vinci, Isaac Newton, and Zhang Heng gave us amazing and influential creations because they were inventors, scientists, mathematicians, engineers and more, all at the same time. These inventors used knowledge from many different fields. As they proved, great achievements often come from thinking beyond the boundaries of a single subject. This is why, nowadays, schools are pushing cross-disciplinary studies. They hope that by drawing from multiple areas, students can contribute to different fields and make a meaningful impact. Cross-disciplinary learning can help you gain new opinions, find creative solutions and most importantly, better prepare you to deal with the complex challenges of tomorrow. You never know where inspiration might come from. Sometimes the best ideas are found in the most unexpected places. So, go ahead, mix it up, learn from everything, and see how far it takes you! 11. Which sentence should go into “▲” in Paragraph 1? A. It’s cross-disciplinary learning at its best. B. This means AI is the new start of physics. C. The award brings attention to machine learning. D. Traditional physics involves no other subjects. 12. Why does the writer mention great minds in Paragraph 4? A. To show how clever they were. B. To tell how they made inventions. C. To explain why schools push cross-disciplinary learning. D. To introduce how cross-disciplinary learning developed. 13. What can we learn about cross-disciplinary learning from the passage? A. It was first created and practised by ancient Greeks. B. It helps find out where your inspiration comes from. C. It focuses only on the study of science and technology. D. It contributes to thinking beyond the boundaries of a subject. 14. Which of the following is cross-disciplinary learning? A. Chen Xi does physics homework in a geography class. B. Zhang Jia uses maths knowledge to solve a biology problem. C. Wang Yi learns how to make paper-cutting in an art class. D. Li Na likes to listen to music while doing a chemistry experiment. B For years, scientists have known how to measure (衡量) the intelligence of a person. Recently they began to do research into group intelligence. Early research shows that group intelligence is not the total of the intelligence of the persons in it. So what is the secret of a group’s success? Researchers at a research company and a university have both dealt with this question. They believe they finally have a handle on what makes some work teams successful. In the study of the company, researchers collected information and studied it to find patterns. Are members of effective groups friends outside of work? Do members with similar personalities work together best? They discussed many opinions, but found no patterns to support them. In fact, who was in the team did not make a difference. Instead, the difference between more effective teams and less effective teams was in the interaction (互动) among the members. The university group collected information by using digital badges (数字徽章) that people agreed to wear. They provided much information, including how long people spoke, where they were looking during communication, and their body language. Not only the research company but also the university group found that the key to an effective team was how members communicated with each other. Among the findings, the most important is that, in effective teams, members spoke for almost the same amount of time—not at every meeting or communication, but the whole course of a project. The second one was that members showed an understanding of how it might feel to walk in somebody else’s shoes. A high level of these two characteristics makes a member feel comfortable when he expresses his opinions and makes suggestions without fear of being doubted by other members. They believe that others will listen to them and value what they say. One might say that most of these findings are clear. However, understanding group intelligence can help people make the basic changes that are necessary to increase the chance of a group’s success. 15. The words “have a handle on” in Paragraph 2 probably mean “________”. A. have a clear understanding of B. do a lot of research on C. make a deep discussion about D. have a hard time finding out 16. How did the university group do their research? A. They collected information on how people behaved. B. They studied the findings of some earlier research. C. They asked people questions and explained the answers. D. They discussed their opinions and found common pattern. 17. What can we learn about the researchers’ findings? A. It’s important to divide time equally among group members at one meeting. B. It is necessary for group members to understand each other’s feelings. C. It is common for group members to be doubted in an effective group. D. Team members need to talk as little as possible in communication. 18. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. The Value of Team Members B. Secrets of Successful Teams C. The Competition between groups D. Different Kinds of Team Communication C If you are on a bus or train, you’ve probably noticed that most people spend the ride looking at their cell phones. No doubt, they think doing nothing but sit there would be boring, so they prefer distracting themselves. This squares (一致) with past research showing people will do almost anything to avoid boredom. But results from new research suggest we should rethink that choice. We are probably underestimating (低估) how enjoyable and interesting it is to do nothing but pay attention to wherever our thoughts take us. In a series of experiments, researchers brought Japanese university students into a lab and told them that they would soon go into a room without their belongings to wait and do nothing but sit for 20 minutes. While waiting, they could think about anything, but were not allowed to sleep, walk, or exercise; look at a smartphone; or check a watch. Before entering the room, they were asked to predict how much they’d enjoy waiting and thinking, how interesting or boring it would be, and how much it would engage them so that they would lose themselves in it and forget the time. Then, they went in the room to wait. Afterward, they reported how waiting actually felt--how engaging, pleasurable, interesting, or boring it was. In some variations of the experiment, they waited in a dark room without any stimulation (刺激). Either way, researchers found that the participants were not good at predicting how much they’d enjoy doing nothing but think. Even in a dark room with no stimulation, they ended up being more engaged and interested than they’d expected. “People don’t recognize the real value of waiting thinking,” says researcher Kou Murayama of the Motivation Science Lab at the University of Tubingen in Germany and coauthor of the study. “Once they engage in it, though, they appreciate it.” Spontaneous (自发的) thinking often involves mind-wandering, daydreaming, thinking about the future, or recollecting memories, all of which can have upsides. For example, daydreaming and mind-wandering have been found to improve our mood, creativity, goal-setting, and job performance. Though it’s hard to know if these results with students would apply to the rest of us, Murayama did at least compare German students to Japanese students and found both groups underestimated the pleasure of waiting to a similar degree. This suggests that it’s not necessarily a culturally-driven phenomenon (现象), though more research would need to be done to check that. Overall, says Murayama, the results suggest we rethink whipping out our cell phones every time we are waiting or bored. Instead, we might benefit from having a moment to think freely about whatever catches our fancy—and enjoy ourselves just as much. 19. What can we learn from the experiments mentioned in the passage?

D Pip meets a stranger My first name was Philip, but when I was a small child, I could only manage to say Pip. So Pip was what everybody called me. I lived in a small village in Essex with my sister, who was over twenty years older than me, and married to Joe Gargery, the village blacksmith (铁匠). My parents had died when I was a baby, so I could not remember them at all, but quite often I used to visit the churchyard, about a mile from the village, to look at their names on their gravestones (墓碑). My first memory is of sitting on a gravestone in that churchyard one cold, grey, December afternoon, looking out at the dark, flat, wild marshes divided by the black line of the River Thames, and listening to the rushing sound of the sea in the distance. “Don’t say a word!” cried a terrible voice, as a man jumped up from among the graves and caught hold of me. “If you shout, I’ll cut your throat (喉咙)!” He was a big man, dressed all in grey, with an iron chain (铁链) on his leg. His clothes were wet and torn. He looked tired, and hungry, and very fierce (凶狠的). I had never been so scared in my whole life. “Oh! Don’t cut my throat, sir!” I begged in fear. “My name’s Pip, sir. And I live in the village over there.” He picked me up and turned me upside down. Nothing fell out of my pocket except a piece of old bread. He ate it in two bites, like a dog, and put me back on the gravestone. “So where are your father and mother?” he asked. “There, sir,” I answered, pointing to their graves. “What!” he cried, and was about to run, when he saw where I was pointing. “Oh!” he said. “I see. They’re dead. Well, who do you live with, if I let you live, which I haven’t decided yet?” “With my sister, sir, wife of Joe Gargery, the Blacksmith.” “Blacksmith, you say?” And he looked down at his leg. Then he held me by both arms and stared (注视) fiercely down into my eyes. “Now look here. You bring me a file. You know what that is? And you bring me some food. If you don’t, or if you tell anyone about me, I’ll cut your heart out.” “I promise I’ll do it, sir,” I answered. I was badly scared and my whole body was shaking. “You see,” he continued, smiling unpleasantly,” I travel with a young man, a friend of mine, who roasts boys’ hearts and eats them. He’ll find you, wherever you are, and he’ll have your heart. So bring the file and the food to that wooden shelter over there, early tomorrow morning, if you want to keep your heart, that is. Remember, you promised!” I watched him turn and walk with difficulty across the marshes, the chain hanging clumsily around his leg. Then I ran home as fast as I could. — Taken from Great Expectations 23. What does the writer want to tell us in Paragraph 1? A. What Pip liked to do in the village at present. B.

They don’t have enough learning resources, especially for English. I believe English is not just a language- it also gives people the chance to see the world differently. So I started thinking about what I could do for these children. Then, I came up with an idea: to make special English learning material! More than 10 classmates joined me, and we started a club called “Out of Mountains” Our English materials have three parts: listening, reading and writing. We decided to publish them every month and send them to children by email. We also built a website so children could get information more easily. Each of us worked on one part, such as writing content, designing the layout, making illustrations and developing the website. To make the learning process more fun, we chose interesting topics for kids, like holidays. The hardest part was finding the children. I contacted schools in Liangshan, Sichuan. I also reached out to children through some WeChat official accounts. I felt nervous talking to them and was afraid of being turned down, but I did my best to share our ideas. In the end, we got the readers we had hoped for. Every time a parent emailed us saying “my child really liked the story”, it gave us the strength to keep going. I hope our small acts can help give these kids a better future. 64.
